Site of Debden Hall Gardens and farmyard (EHER 332)

This area to the south of Debden church was once part of the gardens associated with Debden Hall (EHER 252). Also within this area is a timber-framed and plastered barn, dating from the 17th to 18th century. This barn stands north of the present Debden Hall farmhouse and forms the north side of a large farmyard.

On the south and east of the farmyard is an L-shaped range of 18th century outbuildings, part brick, part plastered. In the centre of the south side is a square entrance pavilion. On the south side is an oval plaque with the initials T.C. above the date 1782. In the centre of the east side is a square pavilion also. The farmhouse itself was almost completely rebuilt in the 20th century. <5> KITCHEN GARDEN This lies immediately SE of the churchyard walled in red brick. Some or all of the associated buildings have been converted to private residences, with the productive area laid out to gardens, making close inspection impossible. The glasshouses do not appear to have survived.
